Home is wherever I'm with you...

We are officially moved in! We have a home and are living the Dutch life (well not that we weren't before, but it pretty sweet to have our own place). We moved to Scheveningen on Sunday and are all settled in.  Sunday we had beautiful weather and so we even had a chance to go and enjoy the sunshine on the beach, which is right in our backyard pretty much, we are spoiled!
Here is a little tour of our humble abode



Our lovely patio all to ourselves
 Our room, that is our friend Wilhelmina in the fire place there



Our living room, you can see the entrance to our room through that doorway


 The Kitchen                                                The Guest room                          Hallway connecting the two


             


            THE BEACH!
(only a 5 min walk)



We have also already had our first house guests! Robyn and Brian are in the Netherlands right now on their way home from teaching english in Korea for the past year, it has been over a year since we have seen them and so it was wonderful to be reunited finally and in the Netherlands no less!! They came to Den Haag on Monday for the day and we had a great time showing them around a little and enjoying some lovely 'wine time' together:) They went back to Brian's relatives for a couple days but they are coming back tomorrow and staying with us for a week!! We are very excited, it will be really great to explore and spend             some time together.


In other news we had a chance the other week to visit a windmill museum inside of an old windmill and an old castle ruin, courtesy of my dad's cousin Peter who we were staying with. It was pretty cool and so here are few pictures from that.

I may not blog for a little while as we will be out and about with Robyn and Brian for the next week and then on Oct 27th we are off to Dublin to meet up with  Alicia!!! We will have lots of stories and pictures after I am sure, so until then..

Doi!
